The 2023 ʻAi Pono Kauaʻi Challenge is next week!

Join us September 24th to September 30th for this week-long celebration of eating local food.

 
 
 

What is the ‘Ai Pono Kauaʻi Challenge?

The ʻAi Pono Kauaʻi Challenge supports and celebrates locally grown, raised, sourced and prepared foods from Kauaʻi farmers, ranches, value added producers and suppliers. In doing so, we hope to inspire Kauaʻi residents to increase the amount of local food they buy and eat. Together we can transition our local food system, support local agriculture and increase the amount of  food we consume that is grown here, not flown here!

For this fun and family friendly 7-day challenge, participants are encouraged to utilize various scavenger hunt card categories to engage in different ways to celebrate local foods. Registrants will be entered for a chance to win some awesome ʻAi Pono partner goodies & great giveaway prizes!
